If all the triangles and combined rectangles had their respective areas added. Triangle A (the top ) would have an area of 32 squares, and the bottom would be 33 squares. However if you solve for the area of the entire triangle , its 32.5. Therefore neither configuration is right on the correct cumulative area, The top triangle, if solved by adding the cumulative areas of the smaller triangles and rectangles is .5 square too small and the bottom one is actually .5 squares too big . Conclusion, its all done by squishing the y axis of the grid. No laws broken, its 3 card monty.

1.) 9.. each brother (6) has one sister (1).. not each brother has 6 sisters.. plus the (2) two parents.
2.) the 'triangles' are not triangles. their potrayed hypotenues' differ in shape, i.e., they are not perfectly straight lines. the areas are the same, though.. because each shape holds the same area, no matter how they are rearranged.
3.) one two three four five
six seven eight nine ten
